+# Preface
+
+Although I've made switching over to Klipper as easy as is possible, it can still be a challenge for some, especially considering that most of you have likely never used GNU+Linux. Save yourself the fustration, and fully read all documentation found on this page. Also note that Klipper is not a *must*, and is not for everyone. You can stick with Marlin, and have a fine 3D printing experience.

 # Installation Steps
 
 ## Before You Begin
 
-- Know what you're getting into by reading this documentation *fully!*
-- It is assumed that you are connected to your host Raspberry Pi (or other host device) via SSH, and that your printer motherboard is connected to the host via USB.
+- Read this documentation *fully!*
+- Follow the steps in order.
+- If an error was reported at a step, do no proceed to the next step.
+- It is assumed that you are connected to your host Raspberry Pi (or other host device) via SSH, and that your printer motherboard is connected to the host via a data USB cable. Note that most of the micro USB cables that you find at home are *unlikely* to be data cables, and it's not possible to tell just by looking.
 - It is also assumed that the username on the host device is `pi`. If that is not the case, you will have to manually edit `moonraker.conf` and `cfgs/misc-macros.cfg` and change any mentions of `/home/pi` to `/home/yourUserName`.
-- Klipper *must* be installed on the host Raspberry Pi for everything to work. Easiest is to use a [FluiddPi](https://docs.fluidd.xyz/installation/fluiddpi#download) or [MainsailOS](https://github.com/mainsail-crew/mainsail/releases/latest) image.
-- It is assumed that there is one instance of Klipper installed. If you have multiple instances of Klipper installed, via `KIAUH` for example, then this guide is not for you. You can still use all the configs of course, but the steps in this guide will not work for you.

[KIAUH](https://github.com/th33xitus/kiauh) is another excellent option, though it's not as simple as flashing MainsailOS on a microSD card, for example.
+- Robert Redford's performance in *Spy Game (2001)* was superb!

 - Your question has probably been answered already, but if it hasn't, please post in the [Discussion](https://github.com/bassamanator/Sovol-SV06-firmware/discussions) section.
-- If you see any errors, or encounter any issues, please create an [Issue](https://github.com/bassamanator/Sovol-SV06-firmware/issues/new), or a [Pull request](https://github.com/bassamanator/Sovol-SV06-firmware/pulls).
 - I would recommend searching for the word `NOTE` in this repository. There are roughly half a dozen short points amongst the various files that you should be aware of if you're using this configuration.

+## Adjust Your Slicer

+You need to adjust the start and end gcode in your slicer. The relevant macros are `PRINT_START` and `PRINT_END`. Find instructions [here](https://ellis3dp.com/Print-Tuning-Guide/articles/passing_slicer_variables.html#slicer-start-g-code).
